Now I have to say that this reply falls outside my technical knowledge. I hope I was able to shed some light on your concerns. The specific configuration of VyprDNS is just one of the ways we protect your data. We go to great lengths to ensure all data sent over our network stays between us and the customer. That’s why you might see IPs associated with different hostnames that have nothing to do with VyprVPN.ĭNS leak test sites make the faulty assumption that the DNS server to which the end-user makes the request is the actual DNS server from which the leak test will see the request, which is not how it works with VyprDNS, specifically because we don’t want leak test servers seeing the request come from VyprVPN. The hostnames associated with those last server DNS IPs are not typically within our control, so we normally cannot change them.

This is good because customer DNS is not identified as coming from VyprVPN, which is the intended goal. Sites like and others will see the last server in the DNS relay chain, which typically does not identify itself with VyprVPN. Doing this prevents organizations that restrict DNS from putting blocks in place for our users. We setup VyprDNS in such a way that prevents our customer’s DNS queries from being associated with their activity on VyprVPN. I’d like to elaborate a little bit on how VyprDNS works and the reason why you are seeing the results you are seeing on that site. If you do, then you are leaking DNS requests and we can further assist with that to the best of our ability. I would be happy to provide some clarification.įirstly, if you are not seeing your ISP's name associated with any of the DNS servers the site returned, then you do not have a leak. I understand you have some concerns about the results you are seeing on a DNS leak test site. I contacted VyprVPN (Golden Frog) to draw their attention to the results published at.
